As part of our rho chi training, we had to do mock counseling sessions. For one of my sessions, I had to counsel a "PNM" who came in saying that she wanted to be in the same sorority as I was in and that she was convinced I was an AEPhi. My answer: "If you think I'm an AEPhi, you have a one in seventeen chance of being right. And whether I am or not, I'm just one sister out of many. Look at the entire sisterhood, and think about where you feel at home and comfortable."
(As it so happened, my PNMs were convinced that I was an XYZ. I don't think any of them had me pegged for an AEPhi.)
Along these lines: DON'T choose a sorority because you have a friend who's a sister, if you don't feel comfortable with the other sisters. Think about all the members, not just one.
